Flour-The Market Record says: There is
prospect of higher freight rates in few
months and with that in view millers in Min
neapolis are moving, in the matter of long
time forward sales with little more caution.
Besides that many of them are of the fixed
idea that there will be an advance later
when the real shortage in this years crop
develops. good request for flour was
noted to-day; not so active as on some Tor
mer days during the past TWO weeks, but it
was equal to the offerings, prices holding
steady. The production is cut down by
scanty supply of water power, which is a
factor to be considered for the remainder of
power to several, leaves the general output
|. below last year, for corresponding date. Pat
ents, sacks to local dealers, 81. 1904. 25; pat
ents to ship, sacks, car lots, S4.G504.1 Is; in

flour, pure. cWt., S1Io.
Bran and ShOrts-Bran was in demand and
sold at S1G@10.50. Shorts brought SI@2
higher than bran. Considerable of the cur
rent production is going on previous sales.
Corn-Market dull at 39639Izc for good
samples on track.
Oats-Oats now seem to have struck bottom
at 24@25c, at which the large supply on
track was cleared off and now fresh lots are
held to at about l2c more, though buyers are
slow to respond to it.
Barley-The barley market is rather stupid
just now and while eolored samples sell
sometimes they are slow. Nice white stock
is doing little better, perhaps, selling at
Flax Seed-Sales at 81, Chicago SIO6.
Feed-Steady at $14.50@15 on track,
SIS. 25@15. 80 delivered.
